Story

7-Up mascot, Spot has become trapped within a movie projector, and must now travel between different movie genres attempting to escape (and rescue other spots, similar to Cool Spot).

Unlike previous Spot games, the 7 Up beverage is not referenced at any point in Spot Goes to Hollywood (aside from in copyright details). This is in contrast to Cool Spot which had its bonus stages set within giant 7 Up bottles, and frequently made nods to the drink (though much of this was censored in the PAL version of the game).

Gameplay

Spot Goes to Hollywood plays much the same as Cool Spot, however presents its gameplay in an isometric perspective, allowing for pseudo-3D gameplay. Levels are still linear in design, although this change in style leads to gameplay being more about shooting than precise platforming.

As the game takes place in a fictional (from Spot's perspective) world, it is not designed with spot's small size in mind.

Unreleased versions

A version of the game for the Sega 32X was in development around the same time as the Mega Drive version. It would have featured more detailed prerendered graphics, as well as a 3D Space Harrier-style bonus stage. The bonus stage was not used in the later Saturn version.
